  2. Associative array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_array

    In computer science, an associative array, map, symbol table, or dictionary is an abstract data type that stores a collection of (key, value) pairs, such that each possible key appears at most once in the collection. In mathematical terms, an associative array is a function with finite domain. [1] It supports 'lookup', 'remove', and 'insert ...

    Python sets are very much like mathematical sets, and support operations like set intersection and union. Python also features a frozenset class for immutable sets, see Collection types. Dictionaries (class dict) are mutable mappings tying keys and corresponding values. Python has special syntax to create dictionaries ({key: value})

    The enclosed text becomes a string literal, which Python usually ignores (except when it is the first statement in the body of a module, class or function; see docstring). Elixir The above trick used in Python also works in Elixir, but the compiler will throw a warning if it spots this.

  5. D (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D_(programming_language)

    Built-in associative arrays require immutable keys. The ~= operator appends a new dstring to the values of the associate dynamic array. toLower, join and chomp are string functions that D allows the use of with a method syntax. The name of such functions are often similar to Python string methods.

    PHP also supports a C-like sprintf function. Code can be modularized into functions defined with keyword function. PHP supports an optional object oriented coding style, with classes denoted by the class keyword. Functions defined inside classes are sometimes called methods.

    In addition to support for vectorized arithmetic and relational operations, these languages also vectorize common mathematical functions such as sine. For example, if x is an array, then y = sin (x) will result in an array y whose elements are sine of the corresponding elements of the array x. Vectorized index operations are also supported.

  8. B-tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B-tree

    For this purpose, m - 1 keys from the current node, the new key inserted, one key from the parent node and j keys from the sibling node are seen as an ordered array of m + j + 1 keys. The array becomes split by half, so that ⌊ (m + j + 1)/2 ⌋ lowest keys stay in the current node, the next (middle) key is inserted in the parent and the rest ...

  9. Delimiter - Wikipedia

    A stylistic depiction of values inside of a so-named comma-separated values (CSV) text file. The commas (shown in red) are used as field delimiters. A delimiter is a sequence of one or more characters for specifying the boundary between separate, independent regions in plain text, mathematical expressions or other data streams.
